I was wondering myself today, I haven't heard the radio advert yet - although I do listen out for it when I am in the area.
I hope that it is going well for everyone

People tell me that the area we work in can't sustain the prices we charge.  Odd how many new customers we're getting...

ok.

well the radio add on heart only plays for the first week of each month, (deal there on the price) its been a very slow start. However, it does work and I have had a few through, a couple today in fact.

It may just be that radio isnt the best way to get someone onto a website and may take some time to really find that thing that just clicks.

I have spoken to many of the customers that came through and there opinion has been very strong indeed.

This week I bought 100,000 adds on face book and am looking into other stuff, so just bare with me. Im trying!

Lee the problem with radio advertising is it doesn't get any more expensive. You can't sustain those levels of costs over a prolonged period of time (and I assume you want to earn something from this for a prolonged period of time) Its all well and good to a certain extent advertising on radio if you continue to gain hits from the ads but YOU aren't. The guys you are selling the leads to are though; they're getting the repeat business. They are making more from this than you I'd imagine.

How many sales have you had in total so far?

I'ts great to see someone else local to me with as much determination as I have - keep it up you will find the way.

Have you thought about adding a commercial window cleaning link? For example - Commercial Window Cleaner Horsham - which could link directly to joe bloggs website - perhaps you could charge for each area and link? Maybe a small payment each month to begin with, increasing as your site gains ranking and popularity?

Or you could swap a banner with a commercial window cleaning company who doesn't clean domestics, we still recieve calls for domestics in Crawley that we don't want. Both companies could win out of this.
I am sure there are lots of commercial window cleaning companies all over the place who don't do domestics - there are a number of ways you could add this to iwantawindowcleaner.com

Good luck
